All too often we are confronted with pitiful images of the victims
of famine and drought which emanate from sub-Saharan Africa. While
these images are normally drawn from the very poorest countries,
the entire region faces an intense economic crisis. Why is this
area in a state of near-permanent crisis and perhaps, more
importantly, what can be done about it? "Economic Crisis in Africa"
presents an overview of the situation and examines the feasibility
of current policies as well as presenting long term objectives. The
book is divided into parts. Part One presents an overall view of
the African crisis and crisis management. The authors focus on
present economic and social conditions in the region. These are
illustrated with cross-country studies, focusing particularly on
Tanzania and Kenya. Part Two examines problems of the external
sector particularly, trade liberalization. Here, the relative
success of Zimbabwe and Botswana is contrasted with the failure of
Lesotho to implement an adjustment policy and the prevalence of
"Dutch Disease" in Zambia. Part Three presents a micro perspective
on the African crisis and adjustment.
